Publisher Description
From the USA Today bestselling author of Walking on Sunshine comes a new novel set in Cricket Creek, Kentucky, starring a city girl who meets the man of her dreams in a least likely place—a sweet, small town nowhere near the big city…
No one is more shocked than Grace Gordon when her cosmetics line makes her a millionaire in need of new investments. Bailing out Mason Mayfield’s Cricket Creek craft brewery seems like the perfect solution. It doesn’t hurt that the sexy country boy makes her weak in the knees…
Sure, Mason is grateful to Grace for saving his brewery. But her upscale marketing plans for his down home business are driving him crazy. She needs a good man to reel her in, and he happily takes the job—especially since it’ll involve some time behind the brewery’s closed doors.
Unfortunately, Grace has never been good at staying in one place. And now that she’s thinking about leaving, Mason has to convince her to call Cricket Creek home—and admit their love was written in the stars…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Siblings, spouses, and in-laws face an unpredictable and enticing path to love in McLane's sweet but slow-moving ninth Cricket Creek contemporary (after Walking on Sunshine). Grace Gordon, who surprised herself and her family by making a fortune in cosmetics while living in England, travels to tiny Cricket Creek, Ky., to help her sister with her restaurant and be there when her brother's wife, Mattie, gives birth. Caught in a storm, she is rescued by sexy brewmaster Mason Mayfield, who happens to be Mattie's brother. His brewery needs a financial and marketing boost, and she's just the one to provide it. Though Grace and Mason have some common ground (such as their love for country music and pork rinds) to support the bubbling attraction between them, complications loom large, including country boy Mason's choppy relationship history and city girl Grace's eagerness to modernize everything. While some of the dialogue alternates between contentless chitchat and voluminous exposition, McLane effectively captures the charming chemistry between Grace and Mason, as well as some sizzling sexy moments once the two join forces.
